Michelle Moore's journey mirrors the reality many working moms live—building a demanding career, juggling school drop-offs during conference calls, and trying to be present while carrying the weight of providing. Her story takes a sharp turn through breast cancer, a sick child, and burnout, ultimately teaching her to slow down, set boundaries, and value quality over quantity. Her path shows that our kids remember connection more than perfection, and that even in our busiest seasons, we can raise grounded, compassionate children while learning to give ourselves more grace.

"Most of the good things that happen come from being slow and thoughtful, you don't have to push and control everything."- Michelle

Empowering insights from this episode:

• Balancing a demanding career with motherhood is messy, exhausting, and still deeply meaningful.
• You can chase stability and ambition while raising kids—support systems make it possible.
• "Doing it all" isn't the goal; being present in the moments that matter is what your kids remember.
• Burnout, health scares, and setbacks don't define you—they can reshape your priorities for the better.
• You're allowed to slow down, set boundaries, and reject perfection without sacrificing success.
• Quality experiences, not constant availability, create the strongest bond with your children.

This episode opens with Angela Tait's candid reflection on losing herself in motherhood and the small acts of self-care and honest connection that helped her rebuild. She shares how these experiences inspired the Mom-me Podcast, a space for working moms navigating the messy middle between career and parenthood, and underscores the need for real workplace support, flexibility, and empathy. Her message centers on reminding moms they're not alone and that open conversations can create lasting change for the next generation.

"It wasn't a big life overhaul—it was the little things that helped me find myself again."

What this episode offers for moms:

• The silent struggle of "losing yourself" in motherhood is more common than most admit—and you're not alone.
• Hormones, exhaustion, and the pressure to "do it all" can make even the most capable moms question who they are.
• Small acts of self-care and reconnecting with old passions can be a lifeline back to yourself.
• Honest conversations with other moms can dissolve isolation and validate what you're feeling.
• Many women aren't leaving careers because they lack ambition—they're leaving because workplaces don't support real-life motherhood.
• Flexible, empathetic, and inclusive environments aren't perks; they're essential for keeping talented moms in the workforce.
• Reclaiming your identity doesn't mean choosing between motherhood and your career—you can honor both.
• When moms share their stories, they shift cultures, reshape leadership, and change what's possible for the next generation.

Working moms, don't miss this inspiring episode. Angela Tait chats with Abbe Large, a financial advisor and mom whose youngest just turned 18, as she shares powerful lessons on balancing career, family, and self. From teaching respect, understanding, and appreciation at home to leading with heart at work, Abbe's story offers practical wisdom and encouragement for every mom striving to do it all. Listen in to feel empowered, recharged, and reminded that growth and balance are possible in every season of motherhood.

"The grass is not greener on the other side, it's greener where you water it. And I water the hell out of my life and my relationships. I work at it, respect, understand, appreciate all of that." - Abbe Large

Highlights working moms will relate to:

• You can do both — career and motherhood. Abbe shows that being a professional and a present mom is possible when you define your own balance and let go of perfection.
• "Decide first." Her mantra: you don't wait for permission to set your schedule — you decide what works for you, your family, and your career.
• It's okay to ask for help. "It takes a village" isn't just a saying — it's a survival strategy. Abbe proves there's no shame in outsourcing what drains you.
• Self-care isn't selfish. Mondays were her "me days" to recharge — because when mom isn't happy, nobody is.
• Respect. Understand. Appreciate. (RUA) — three words she ingrained in her kids that apply just as powerfully in leadership and the workplace.
• Home is your first business. Treat your family life with the same intention, teamwork, and communication you'd give to a thriving company.
• Failing forward is growth. Abbe reminds moms that failure isn't the opposite of success — it's the path to it.
• Be kind to yourself. Her message to her younger self — "I love you" — is a reminder that every mom deserves grace and self-acceptance.
• Run toward the storm. Like the buffalo metaphor she shares, facing challenges head-on shortens the struggle and builds resilience.
• Own your power. Her affirmation — "I'm Abbe f***ing Large" — captures the confidence every working mom deserves to embody.

About Abbe Large:

Forbes Top Financial Security Professional, financial service veteran, and Lenox Advisors Managing Director; Abbe F. Large.

Abbe is a passionate advocate for families navigating tough financial circumstances, a task she intimately knows having personally experienced the financial complexities when her father battled pancreatic cancer.

What happens when a mom's messy mealtime moments spark a brilliant idea? In this episode of Mom-me Moments, Angela Tait chats with Danielle Bohannan, a mom and entrepreneur who turned her journey through anxiety, postpartum depression, and motherhood into the creation of the Bibvy. From therapy and self-care to balancing parenting and business, Danielle shares how she transformed chaos into creativity and built a thriving brand—reminding moms everywhere that showing up, even imperfectly, is its own kind of success.

"You gotta always stand with motherhood. Think about how far you've already come. On those hard days, I look back at old pictures, when I was designing, or when my kids were babies. So that helps a lot to remind yourself" - Danielle Bohannan

Why you'll relate and want to tune in:

• Real talk on juggling it all: Danielle shares the unfiltered truth of balancing kids, career, and mental health—because "doing it all" shouldn't mean doing it alone.
• Motherhood isn't picture-perfect: From traumatic births to postpartum depression, Danielle opens up about the messy, beautiful reality behind the highlight reel.
• Mental health matters: How therapy, music, and self-awareness helped her reclaim herself and become a better mom and entrepreneur.
• Turning chaos into creativity: The story of how a mom's frustration with messy mealtimes led to inventing the Bibvy—proof that innovation can start in your kitchen.
• Rediscovering balance: The importance of self-care, exercise, and learning to pause without guilt.
• Redefining "having it all": Why success doesn't mean perfection, and how showing up—imperfectly—is often the most powerful thing we can do.
• For every working mom: A reminder that your dreams don't have to wait until your kids are grown. You can build, create, and thrive while raising them.

About Danielle Bohannan:

Arizona native Danielle Bohannan, founder of Bibvy and mom of two, set out to end the chaos of messy mealtimes. Inspired by her daughter Ivy, Danielle grew frustrated with silicone bibs that kids could rip off, and coveralls that didn't catch food - leaving stained clothes and messy floors behind.

Determined to create a better solution, she designed Bibvy: a one-of-a-kind bib with a patent-pending buckle that secures around the high chair, creating a hammock in the lap to catch food, keeping babies and toddlers clean while actually containing the mess.

Designed to fit children from 6 months to 3 years, Bibvy also transforms into an apron for crafts and play, giving parents everywhere a stress-free way to tackle both mealtime and playtime.

At 50 episodes strong, this podcast proves that motherhood isn't just about balance—it's about transformation, community, and rewriting the rules at home and in the workplace. In this milestone episode, Angela Tait reflects on creating a space where working moms can share raw truths about identity, energy, and support while also calling for systemic change in corporate culture. From rediscovering who you are after motherhood to setting boundaries that protect our energy, leaning on others, and advocating for flexibility and empathy at work, these stories highlight both the personal evolution of moms and the collective movement toward workplaces and communities that truly value them.

"Our real currency as moms isn't time, it's energy, and boundaries or how we protect it. So, a question for the moms, where do you need to say no this week so you can say yes to what truly matters?"

What this episode brings to the table:

• 50th Episode Milestone – A celebration of building a safe space for working moms to share honest stories about motherhood, career, and identity.
• Identity & Rediscovery – Motherhood isn't about returning to who you were before, but embracing who you're becoming.
• Energy & Boundaries – The real currency for moms isn't time, it's energy—and setting boundaries is how we protect it.
• Community & Support – Every time a mom shares her story, she gives others permission to breathe; it truly takes a village.
• Advocacy & Structural Change – Personal stories double as calls for workplaces to evolve with empathy, flexibility, and real retention strategies.
• Listener Favorites – Abby's mantra "I can have it all, but I can't do it all" (Ep. 14) and Jaymina's wisdom that "there's no one right way—it's all gray" (Ep. 8) resonated deeply.
• Collective Movement – Beyond being a podcast, Mom-me is growing into a community and advocacy platform pushing for cultural and workplace change.

What happens when a ballerina-turned-movement coach brings her whole heart into motherhood? In this episode, Angela Tait sits down with Domini Anne to talk about pregnancy, childbirth, and the wild ride of balancing identity, resilience, and mom life. From delivering her own baby in a bathtub to creating a breathwork method that transformed her body and mind, Domini shares raw stories, laughs, and wisdom that will make you see motherhood—and yourself—in a whole new way.

"Not everything is solved by changing your perspective, but when you shift that environment, you're often better able to deal with even more intense problems." - Domini Anne

Highlights working moms will relate to:

• Motherhood doesn't erase your identity — Domini reminds us that being a mom doesn't mean losing yourself; your career, artistry, and passions still matter.
• Movement is more than exercise — it's a tool to connect mind and body, manage stress, and strengthen resilience in daily life.
• Pregnancy is the ultimate training ground — it teaches us how to surrender control, adapt, and grow stronger in ways that prepare us for parenting.
• Breathwork changes everything — learning to breathe with awareness can shift pain, calm the nervous system, and bring more ease to both childbirth and motherhood.
• It's okay to admit it's hard — Domini breaks the myth that moms must "have it all together," sharing the messy truth with humor and honesty.
• You'll become a better version of yourself — despite the chaos, motherhood sharpens your priorities, builds efficiency, and deepens your capacity for joy.
